similar-code

name	similar-code
description	Find semantically similar code across the codebase using vector search (armyknife searchx). Use when looking for similar implementations, duplicate code, or existing patterns. Requires symbols.db.
keywords	similar-code, 類似コード, 似た実装, 重複コード

• Always use actual code as query input, not natural language descriptions
• Prerequisite: symbols.db must exist at project root (built via armyknife searchx index)

Workflow

1. User provides code as argument (e.g., /similar-code <pasted code>)
2. Run the search command:

armyknife searchx query '<code>' --limit 10 --database symbols.db

3. Present results as a table (symbol, kind, file, line, similarity)
4. Read top matches to show code context

Interpreting Results

Similarity	Meaning
0.8+	Very similar (likely same pattern or implementation)
0.6-0.8	Related (similar structure or purpose)
<0.6	Weak match

Limitations

Input Type	Result Quality
Actual code	Good (designed for code-to-code similarity)
Natural language	Poor (embedding model is code-focused)

Code is embedded using embeddinggemma:300m (768-dim) via Ollama.
